2.2: Parts Of The Console
Inputs & Outputs
The Signature console features a variety of physical inputs and outputs for getting audio in and out of the
console: XLR, Jack, and Phono for analogue audio I/O, and USB for digital audio. Refer to Section 3.0
for more detail, and to section 7.0 for detailed information on USB functionality. Note - USB functionality
for MTK (Signature 12MTK) and non-MTK (Signature 10 and 12) are different; both types are detailed in
section 7.0.
Mono Input Channels
Mono input channels control the levels, routing, and EQ on single channel audio inputs. All mono input
channels have both microphone and line-level capability. In addition, specific channels feature Hi-Z inputs
for high impedance sources such as guitar pick-ups. Refer to Sections 4.2 and 5.2 for more detail.
Stereo Input Channels
Signature 10, 12, and 12MTK consoles have two types of stereo inputs. One offers the option of a mono
microphone/line level input by using either the XLR or Left/Mono Jack Input as well as stereo Jack inputs;
the other (highest-numbered stereo channel) offers stereo line level phono inputs and is the ‘Playback
Channel’; the Master channel’s INTERVAL MUTE mutes all channels except the Stereo playback channel.
Refer to Sections 4.3 and 5.3 for more detail.
FX Return
A Signature FX Return channel takes it’s input from the output of the internal Lexicon FX processor. It is a
stereo input channel with aux sends but without input level control or EQ. Refer to Sections 4.4 and 5.4 for
more detail.
